Abstract :

OBJECTIVE:- To establish the role of TVS,HSG and hysteroscopy in diagnosing uterine causes of infertility. METHOD:-Fifty Infertile women aged between 18-35years with primary or secondary infertility were assessed by TVS,HSG, and hysteroscopy for detecting the uterine causes of infertility. Other factors of infertility such as male factors, ovarian factors, tubal factors, infertility due to hormonal factors, and acute PID by clinical examination were excluded. RESULTS:-TVS was found to be a simple, non-invasive, screening modality with Sensitivity 40%,Specificity 100%,PPV 100%,NPV 52.6%.HSG was found to be a simple, safe, minimally invasive radiologic procedure with Sensitivity 56.5%, specificity 96.1% ,PPV 92.8%, NPV 71.5%.Hysteroscopy can be recommended the gold standard for evaluating the uterine cavity.
